Based on the form of a Jellyfish.
From reading the interview of Versace, she struck me as a character who is detached from the world, and has a distorted view of the world, where everyone is gay (happy) and loves matching pink luggage. The deceptive difference between the internal space and the external form of the upper office for Versace reflects this detachment. The enclosed space isolates Versace's gay (happy) world from the realities outside.
The dynamic office is composed from multiple bands of spaces, which move as the occupant travels through the space, and this movement would create different openings, varying the lighting. Small windows will be cut at very specific orientations into the outer shell to deliberate beams of light into the room, and to also illustrate the varying thickness and contrasting outer/inner form.
Before, it was an glass box enclosed in a solid shell. The intermediate meeting space is a solid box enclosed in an expanse of glass. The box will explode and form a room when the elevator makes contact.
The nodes are accumulatively the office space for Steve Jobs, with a central circular elevator which would service all the levels. The 360 view from each node reflects the user friendly nature of apple products, as if Jobs has stood up in the clouds, looking down at the world, and thought "hmm...I think what they really need down there is an iPod."
